After large-scale flooding damage occurred along the Imjin river in 1996, 1998, and 1999, the Hantan river flood control dam was planned, and it has since been under construction. Unlike existing dams in Korea, the Hantan river flood control dam will remain fully open except during high floods, when the dam will store flood water temporarily to reduce flood peaks and flood water volume downstream. During past flooding seasons, floating debris has caused difficulties in the management of large-scale dams. Most of the existing multipurpose dams in Korea have installed nets to collect floating debris based on many years of experience with and data about inflow and distribution of floating debris in the dams. For the Hantan river flood control dam, however, collection of data about inflow and distribution of floating debris is not possible as the dam is located near the border area between North and South Korea. In order to devise a preliminary plan to collect floating debris in the Hantan river flood control dam, an EFDC hydrodynamic model was used to analyze the behavior of floating debris during high floods. The Lagrangian particle tracking method was utilized to simulate the behavior of floating debris in the dam. Based on the analysis of paths and final destinations of the particles, seven collection points were selected where it seemed to be effective to collect floating debris, as debris is likely to accumulate there in high density.

This study was performed to monitor the effects of water level change on changes of landscape, vegetation community, and species diversity of riparian forest. Hantan river dam, study area, has been constructed in the area of Chansoo-myeon, Pocheon-si and Yeoncheon-eup, Yeoncheon-gun, Gyeonggi-do, which is a dam for flood control only in flooding season. Landscape changes were notable after the construction of coffer dam, and the changes were caused by water level increase in areas of riparian forests which consisted of mainly withered willow as a dominant species in the flooding season. It changed vegetation communities of riparian forest from Phragmites japonica and Salix koreensis to Phragmites japonica. Species diversity index was lowest in 2010 when the coffer dam was constructed and showed an increasing trend later. Thus, this study is well in agreement with a previous report that plants of the genus Salix wither by muddy water during flooding and also suggests, controlling water level of river and prediction of water level change's effects should be considered when any facilities are planned.

Sediment release openings or pipes are installed in the flood control dam constructed to reduce flood damages, which are to allow water and sediments pass through the dam and to prevent flow blockage and sedimentation in the upstream area of the dam. The Hantan River Flood Control Dam (HRFCD) has been projected for flood damage reduction and sediment release openings and ecological passages are considered for the dam design. In this study, sediment deposition due to the construction of HRFCD was analyzed using the HEC-6 model and compared with the state before the dam construction with respect to the conditions of the annual mean daily discharge and annual discharge hydrograph. According to the numerical results, although downstream water levels were changed by the dam structure, the effects of bed changes were not propagated from the dam over 2 km upstream. Also, 2D numerical models of RMA2 and SED2D were used to predict bed changes in the upstream area with and without sediment release openings. Consequently, it is presented that sediment release openings decreased maximum deposition height in the upstream channel of the dam.

자연 상태의 하천의 하상은 흐름에 의해 끊임없이 변하지만 기록적인 홍수 등 특별한 자연 현상이 없는 한 유사이송에 평형을 이룬 상태라 할 수 있다. 하지만 유역 토지이용의 변화와 골재 채취, 댐과 저수지의 건설 등과 같은 인위적인 요인들은 하천의 평형 상태를 파괴하고 유사이송문제 및 하상변화 등과 같은 문제점을 야기 시킨다. 따라서 홍수피해를 경감시키고 홍수조절을 목적으로 계획하는 홍수조절댐의 경우 홍수 발생 기간 외에는 상류와 하류 하천 간의 흐름 차단을 최대한 억제하고 상류로부터 유입되는 유사가 댐 상류부에 퇴적되는 것을 방지하기 위해 댐에 상시 개방되어 있는 배사관과 생태통로를 설치하도록 계획되기도 한다. 국내에서는 임진강 유역에서 홍수피해 저감을 위한 한탄강댐의 건설이 계획되었으며 유사이송문제와 생태환경 문제를 고려하여 배사관과 생태통로를 설치하도록 설계하였다. 본 연구에서는 1차원 HEC-6모형을 이용하여 대상 유역인 한탄강 홍수조절댐 상류하천에 대해 댐 건설 전과 후의 수위변화 및 하상변동 모의를 수행하였으며 지속 기간별 평수량과 연평균유량에 대한 장기하상변동을 분석하였다. 또한 과거유량수문자료를 이용하여 산출된 1년 동안의 대표 유량수문곡선을 HEC-6 모의에 적용하여 유량변화가 연속적으로 발생했을 경우의 하상변화를 1년과 100년 기간에 대해 각각 분석하였다. 그 결과 지속 기간이 길어짐에 따라 상류 7.8 km에서는 퇴적과 침식 작용이 활발히 일어남을 알 수 있었다. 하지만 댐 건설 전과 후의 하상 변화의 차이가 크지 않았다. 또한 연평균 유량 조건을 복합적으로 적용했을 때가 지속적인 연평균유량을 적용했을 때보다 하상변화가 더 크게 발생하였다.
